— Somebody saw something at the last second, just before the St. Louis Rams snapped the ball to punter Johnny Hekker standing inside his 10-yard line less than a minute into Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles.

— Two teams on edge from the opening seconds. Nearly 900 yards of offense leading to 71 total points. A full-scale brawl leading to two ejections. Another potentially serious injury for an already thin offensive line. And finally a voice of...

Center Jason Kelce is headed for surgery to repair a hernia that could finish him for the season, although Philadelphia Eagles coach Chip Kelly said he did not know how long Kelce would be out and thus had no clue whether he would wind up on the season-...

Last year, the Eagles led the entire NFL in rushing yards and rushing average. This year, after four games, they're 23rd in the league in yards and 22nd in average, even though the same player — running back LeSean McCoy — is still getting the...

The Philadelphia Eagles are No. 1 in the NFL in offense and in scoring. They're also 2-0 after two dramatic victories, including Monday night's 30-27 upset of Indianapolis. And the Eagles have managed to do it without major contributions from the...

— They've had to adjust the plan so much already that the original can barely be remembered or maybe even conceived of again this season.
Way back in May, the Philadelphia Eagles were preparing with great anticipation for the second year of their offensive line's being together. In 2013, it was quite strong following the addition of right tackle Lane Johnson in the first round of the draft and the return of center Jason Kelce, left tackle Jason Peters and right guard Todd Herremans from injuries...

The Philadelphia Eagles have placed guard/tackle Allen Barbre (ankle) and linebacker Najee Goode (torn pectoral muscle) on Injured Reserve. The team has also placed guard Evan Mathis (medial collateral ligament) on Injured Reserve Designated For Return. Mathis will be eligible to practice with the team in six weeks and to return to play in eight weeks.
Additionally, the Eagles have signed 11-year veteran and former Pro Bowl G/T Wade Smith, who most recently held a stint with the Seattle Seahawks...

As Ravens cornerback Chykie Brown returned to practice on a limited basis with a minor right knee injury, Houston Texans wide receiver Andre Johnson was also back to work.
Johnson practiced for the first time this week since sustaining a concussion against the Tennessee Titans when he got hit by former Ravens safety Bernard Pollard, who was fined $42,000 by the NFL.
Ravens wide receiver Deonte Thompson didn't practice due to a left foot sprain that's still bothering him after practicing Wednesday on a...

The Ravens ruled out Pro Bowl kick returner Jacoby Jones for the second consecutive week due to a sprained medial collateral ligament in his right knee.
Jones is expected to be out four to six weeks, according to sources.
Five other players didn't practice Wednesday, including Pro Bowl running back Ray Rice (left hip flexor strain), inside linebacker Arthur Brown (left strained pectoral), cornerback Chykie Brown (right knee), defensive end Chris Canty (strained groin), center Ryan Jensen (foot...

Texans 30, Titans 24
Strategy: Led by All-Pro defensive end J.J. Watt, the Texans have one of the most aggressive and physical 3-4 defensive fronts in the NFL. Defensive coordinator Wade Phillips isn’t afraid to blitz and he sent pass rushers in waves at Tennessee Titans quarterback Jake Locker. That style of play puts pressure on his defensive backs to play tight man coverage, something that can be exploited. Offensively, they’re the same old Texans, relying on Arian Foster and Ben Tate...

The Ravens' expected hire of former Houston Texans coach Gary Kubiak as their new offensive coordinator triggered heavy praise from one of his former players.
Former Texans offensive tackle Eric Winston played for Kubiak for six seasons and characterized the hire as an "absolute home run" that will provide a boost for the NFL's 29th-ranked offense from last season.
"I think Gary can get them back to where they were when they were rolling with Ray Rice and Joe Flacco and an offensive line with...
